  • Awesome to have Orgmode on iOS

    This is wonderful ; the power, flexibility and versatility of Emacs Org-mode on iOS. Plain Org implements well with a simple UI easy enough to use by anyone

    Great to hear. Thank you!
  • Org mode useful on mobile

    This app does exactly what I expect it to do; it lets me read and edit org files on my iPhone and iPad. The interface is clean and the app is AFAIK bug free. If you want org files on your iOS devices, this is what I would use.

    Thank you! Glad it’s filling the expectation.
  • Pretty good for note taking

    Viewing tables is fine but I find editing them not to be too pleasant. Also would be very nice to have some simple table formulas, maybe even a drop down list to say sum up the values in this column/row. Have yet to find an org app on the App Store with this feature
  • Exceptional

    It really is .

    Whoa! Thank you =)
  • Not what I hoped

    First I appreciate the work the developer did on this app. What it does, it does well. But based on other comments I hoped it would fill in gaps with the beorg program. For example, when I refile in beorg I can’t select specific headings.

    Well, plainorg works fine with a single file but does not appear to do well with multiple files. For example, I see no easy way to see an agenda which gives a summary of all your org files. This is perhaps one of the most critical features in org mode. I also don’t see an easy way to refile. It seems to ignore all the header information in a file so I don’t see the task tags I’ve created (TODO, PROJECT, INPROGRESS) etc.

    I’m sure this is a work in progress and perhaps I haven’t explored all the options but for me I’ll be sticking with beorg for now.

  • Loving it 😍

    The app is still in development and the developer is nice and responsive :)

    High five ✋thank you :)
  • Great addition to my toolbox

    Seems to work nicely. The integration with Dropbox via the files app is smooth and frictionless. All I am missing is a way to view attached files.
  • Best all round Org-mode app

    This is the best org-mode editor on the App Store. The only feature it lacks it the ability to schedule todos.
  • Pasting doesn’t seem to work

    Pretty critical for a text editing app to allow pasting of content.
  • Great so far

    Nicely polished way of looking through my org files. I’ve got a few massive files and it loaded them quickly without fuss.
